4.0-liter Tipo 209 V12 cylinders (330 cc per cylinder)
300 CV @ 6600 rpm
Number of units produced: 50 examples
Production period: 1963
The Ferrari 330 America is a hermaphrodite introduced by Ferrari in 1963 as the successor of the 250.
The 330 America was simply a 250 GT/E with a larger engine, the new 4.0 L Tipo 209 V12, with 300 CV @ 6600 rpm.
"330" refers to the approximate displacement of each single cylinder.
All 330 models used an evolution of the 400 Superamerica's 4.0 L Colombo V12 engine. It was substantially changed for the 330 cars, however, with wider bore spacing and the notable use of a true alternator rather than a dynamo generator.
The 330 GTC/GTS (598/100 examples 1966-1968) shared their chassis with the 275, only the 330 GT 2+2 (1099 examples, 1964-1967) was a truly unique product.
Ferrari 275 und 330 GT 2+2 have their transmission at the rear-axle (transaxle-layout) for better weight distribution.

Geoffroy normally works with art formats like the EMERGENCY ROOM
to stimulate urgent expression by artist about today 's emergencies :
www.emergencyrooms.org/formats.html
www.colonel.dk contact : emergencyrooms@gmail.comThierry Geoffroy/ Colonel will be exhibiting in the museum Kunsthalle Mannheim from october 2018 part of the exhibition Konstruktion der Welt .Kunst und Ökonomie
Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018
10/12/18 to 02/03/19
Ten years after the peak of the global financial crisis in 2008, which profoundly shook the economic systems of America and Europe and had a lasting effect on present-day life, this topical exhibition is the first to illustrate the economy’s dramatic influence on art and to make global comparisons, demonstrating these in an analysis of two separate eras. Economic phenomena in the classical modernism of the 1920s and 30s are not only explored by focusing on art from the German Weimar Republic, the Soviet Union, and the United States, but also juxtaposed with artists of the present day.
Curatorial team: Dr. Eckhart Gillen (Berlin), Dr. Ulrike Lorenz, Dr. Sebastian Baden
Project Lead: Dr. Inge Herold, Assistence: Lisa Valentina Riedel, M. A. mult., Elisabeth Bohnet, M.A.
How does contemporary art reflect the world of work today? The catalogue for the second part of the exhibition Constructing the World at the Kunsthalle Mannheim takes a look at this question. The focus of it is primarily on artistic positions of the past decade that deal with the social, political, and economic effects of the most recent economic crisis after 2008. The works address and interrogate new production conditions and developments on the labor market as well as political conflicts. The accompanying publication provides fascinating insights into the diverse artistic positions.

www.danielboonehomestead.org/index.html
The Daniel Boone Homestead (DBH) is a historical site in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania that tells the story of Daniel Boone’s youth in Pennsylvania’s Oley Valley and illuminates the daily lives of the region’s 18th-century settlers through the eyes of the Boone, Maugridge and DeTurk families who occupied the site.
Who was Daniel Boone?
An explorer? A frontiersman? A politician? A soldier?
Daniel Boone was much more than the man who settled Kentucky, but his settlement and continued opening of the frontier is considered his greatest achievement. His pioneering efforts and explorer-spirit made him a legend in his own time. Boone served in the Virginia Legislature, the French and Indian War, and the American Revolution. He was the father of ten children, a blacksmith and wagoneer, and operated a tavern.
Sunday's True Blood premiere answered at least one burning question: Is Lafayette alive? Answer: Yes! Nobody is more surprised by this turn of events than Nelsan Ellis, the actor who plays Lafayette.
As a fan of the Sookie Stackhouse novel series, on which Alan Ball based the vampire drama for HBO, Ellis knew that Lafayette, Merlotte's wisecracking cook — and part-time pornographer/drug dealer — is totally dunzo after Book 1. When he arrived on set for the finale episode's table read, he prepared himself for the end. "I thought, this was fun, time to look for the next gig," he says.
But then... what's this? That painted toenail in the car didn't belong to Lafayette after all! "'You know we're not going to kill you, right?'" Ellis remembers Ball telling him. "And I was like, 'Noooo...'" Ball told the actor that he decided to keep Lafayette in the cast after shooting a scene between Ellis and Rutina Wesley, who plays Lafayette's cousin, Tara, in the pilot episode. Ellis and Wesley have combustive chemistry for sure, which Ellis attributes to their long friendship. (They attended Juilliard together in the early '00s.)
So now that Lafayette has been spared, what's next for the flamboyant entrepreneur?
When we last saw him, he was chained up in a dungeon watching a fellow prisoner get disemboweled by a very cranky Eric, his vampire captor. Ellis reveals that, this season, Lafayette's fate will be inextricably tied with that of the vampires, but that their relationship won't always be quite as adversarial. "[Lafayette] stays with the vampires basically throughout the season," he says. "I guess how deep down the rabbit hole he goes with Eric is the biggest teaser I can give."
"Eric makes people beholden to him," says Ellis. "He did it to Sookie, and now he does force Lafayette to work for him to repay him for something he's done for him." Oh jeez, Lafayette isn't going to become a vampire, is he? Not any time soon, says Ellis. "I have a sneaking suspicion that, in the future, the vampires are going to learn to respect him and not mess with him," he says. "He's going to find a way to elevate his position with them. Lafayette is a survivor, so he's not going to stay in this scared state too long." Excellent!

This animation, made up of eight Envisat radar images, shows the 97-km long B-9B iceberg (right) ramming into the Mertz Glacier Tongue in Eastern Antarctica in early February 2010.
The collision caused a chunk of the glacier’s tongue to snap off, giving birth to another iceberg nearly as large as B-9B. The new iceberg, named C-28, is roughly 78-km long and 39-km wide, with a surface area of 2500 sq. km (the size of Luxembourg).
The Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) on ESA's Envisat satellite took these images from 10 February to 4 March with a spatial resolution of 150 m. ASAR can see through clouds and local darkness and is capable of differentiating between different types of ice.

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Nhà thờ Đức Bà (Frauenkirche)
Khách du lịch đến Dresden (CHLB Đức) ai cũng muốn được tới thăm nhà thờ Đức Bà (Frauenkirche). Mong muốn đó có lý do, bởi nhà thờ này là biểu tượng đặc biệt của thành phố vốn một thuở được mệnh danh là Firenze bên dòng sông Elbe. Và bây giờ nó còn là biểu tượng của hòa bình, sự hòa giải giữa các dân tộc, của lòng mong đợi và đức tin.
Nhà thờ Đức Bà ở Dresden được xây dựng vào cuối thế kỷ 18 (1726-1743) theo lối kiến trúc Baroque vốn lúc bấy giờ đang thịnh hành (Dresden trước Chiến tranh thế giới thứ hai được coi là thành phố Baroque hoàn hảo nhất thế giới) trên nền của ngôi nhà thờ cũ đã tồn tại ở đây từ thế kỷ thứ 11, nhưng đến thế kỷ thứ 18 nó không còn đáp ứng được nhu cầu của những con chiên ngày càng một đông. Dưới bàn tay tài hoa của kiến trúc sư George Bähr, nhà thờ đã được xây dựng hoành tráng và lộng lẫy.
Đến bây giờ Frauenkirche vẫn được xem là nhà thờ tin lành lớn nhất nước Đức và lúc ấy còn được coi là một công trình thế kỷ của Dresden bởi mái vòm nhà thờ lớn nhất cả phía bắc dãy Alpe hoàn toàn được làm bằng đá sa thạch.
Nhà thờ Đức Bà Dresden vừa là biểu tượng vừa là linh hồn của Dresden trong suốt hai thế kỷ từ khi nó được xây dựng cho đến khi những loạt bom Anh và Mỹ thả xuống thành phố ngày 13-2-1945 trong cuộc Chiến tranh thế giới thứ hai.
Trong đêm rải thảm bom kinh hoàng của quân đồng minh ấy, khi ít nhất 35.000 người đã thiệt mạng và hơn 90% khu trung tâm của thành phố bị phá hủy và bị thiêu rụi thì nhà thờ vẫn hiên ngang đứng vững.
Song cũng chỉ được đến ngày 15-2, hai ngày sau trận bom, dải thảm mái vòm nhà thờ vốn đứng vững suốt 200 năm cả dưới pháo đạn của quân Thụy Điển và quân Preussen trong cuộc chiến tranh 7 năm, cũng bị sức mạnh của thần lửa đưa về với cát bụi, tạm thời kết thúc lịch sử nhà thờ vốn là một trong 4 danh lam nổi tiếng khắp thế giới của Dresden. Cả nhà thờ sau đó chỉ có hai phần mảnh tường cao khoảng 20m, còn lại là một khối đổ nát suốt hơn 45 năm.
Linh hồn của Dresden mất đi để lại cho người dân nơi này những tiếc nuối và lòng mong mỏi một ngày nào đấy nó sẽ lại trở về.
Sau khi Chiến tranh thế giới thứ hai kết thúc, nhà thờ không được dựng lại mà cái đống đổ nát ấy trở thành nơi tưởng niệm những nạn nhân oan ức và cũng là biểu tượng chống chiến tranh. Hằng năm vào ngày 13-2, Dresden lại tưởng niệm ngày thành phố bị tàn phá bên phế tích nhà thờ. Và cũng từ đây cuộc cách mạng nhung của Đức đã được xuất phát để phát triển thành cao trào là những cuộc biểu tình tuần hành tại nhà thờ Nikolai ở Leipzig dẫn đến việc thống nhất nước Đức.
Linh hồn của Dresden phải được trở về, chính vì vậy ngay sau khi thống nhất nước Đức, những người có tâm huyết với thành phố đã lập một câu lạc bộ những nhà hảo tâm nhằm vận động và quyên góp tiền của để xây lại nhà thờ cũng với mong mỏi hàn gắn lại hoàn toàn vết thương chiến tranh sau gần 50 năm cuộc chiến đi vào dĩ vãng.
Công cuộc xây dựng lại nhà thờ được bắt đầu năm 1993.
Với những nỗ lực không mệt mỏi của hàng triệu người trên thế giới, sau hơn 10 năm xây dựng công phu và tỉ mỉ, nhà thờ đã được hoàn thiện như như hiện trạng cũ vào năm 2005. Phần lớn tiền xây lại nhà thờ này là do quyên góp mà có, tất cả hơn 130 triệu euro - một con số thật khó tưởng tượng.
Để tưởng nhớ đến ngôi nhà thờ cũ và cũng để nhắc nhở những thế hệ mai sau đừng bao giờ gây ra chiến tranh, họ đã dày công dọn dẹp đống đổ nát, chọn lọc và đánh dấu từng viên đá của nhà thờ cũ có thể dùng được để chúng lại trở về nguyên vị trí nó vốn có.
Một phần ba tổng số những viên đá của nhà thờ mới dựng lại là những viên đá của nhà thờ cũ được tái sử dụng. Chính vì vậy, giờ đây khi đến thăm nhà thờ bạn sẽ thấy những viên đá sa thạch màu đen của nhà thờ cũ do thời gian tạo nên, khác hẳn với những viên đá xung quanh màu vàng nhạt của đá sa thạch vùng Saechsische Schweiz, như một cách ghi dấu ấn lịch sử mà nhà thờ cũng như người dân nơi này đã trải qua.
Được xây dựng lại dưới khẩu hiệu “xây cầu nối, sống giảng hòa, thêm đức tin”, việc xây dựng lại nhà thờ là một quá trình công phu và là một kỳ tích của lòng hảo tâm, sự hòa giải và lòng vị tha. Khi dọn đống đổ nát ấy, người ta phát hiện cây thành giá của nhà thờ cũ, vốn rơi từ trên độ cao hơn 90m, dù bị méo mó nhưng không hề gãy vỡ hay bị lưỡi lửa hung thần nung chảy.
Hiện cây thánh giá được trưng bày trong nhà thờ, còn cây thánh giá mới hiện đang tọa lạc trên đỉnh nhà thờ là quà tặng của thành phố Coventry (Vương quốc Anh), thành phố cũng bị bom của Đức quốc xã thiêu rụi trong Thế chiến thứ hai - chính vì vậy nó cũng là biểu tượng của sự hòa giải giữa hai dân tộc Anh và Đức.
Một chi tiết thật thú vị là cây thánh giá mới do một thợ kim hoàn tên Alan Smith ở London - con trai của một phi công Anh đã tham gia ném bom ở Dresden đêm 13-2-1945 - chế tạo và được chính Nữ hoàng Anh Elizabeth II tạm biệt trước khi chuyên chở tới Dresden. Không chỉ có quà tặng từ Anh mà Ba Lan - một dân tộc cũng bị Đức quốc xã xâm lược - cũng góp một phần tiền của để xây dựng nhà thờ Đức Bà.
Ông Marian Sobkowiak từ thành phố Gostyn, Ba Lan đã kêu gọi người dân thành phố này và chính quyền sở tại quyên góp tiền để làm một chiếc bình hình ngọn lửa vĩnh cửu tặng nhà thờ, dù năm 1942 ông cùng 15 người dân của Gostyn bị Đức quốc xã bắt và tuyên án tử hình ngay tại Dresden (may mắn chỉ ông và hai người nữa trốn thoát trong khi 12 người bạn xấu số đã phải bỏ xác nơi này). Ngọn lửa ấy thật sự là biểu tượng cao cả của lòng vị tha.
Bên trong nhà thờ Đức Bà
Việc xây dựng lại nhà thờ này mang nhiều ý nghĩa, vừa xóa đi dấu vết cuối cùng của cuộc chiến tranh đã đi qua 60 năm vừa là cầu nối giữa các dân tộc, là biểu tượng của hòa bình, của lòng vị tha và cũng là nguồn vui vô bờ bến của thế hệ người Dresden sinh ra trước Chiến tranh thế giới thứ hai.
Trong đêm bom Anh và Mỹ ném xuống Dresden, không biết có bao nhiêu người đã được nhà thờ cứu mạng khi họ xuống hầm nhà thờ tránh bom, chỉ biết rằng năm 2004 khi người ta đưa cây thánh giá lên đỉnh nhà thờ hoàn tất phần ngoài của nó, hàng chục ngàn người Dresden đã đổ về chứng kiến khoảnh khắc lịch sử với sự xúc động nghẹn ngào và những đôi mắt hoe đỏ của rất nhiều cụ già gần đất xa trời.
Người trẻ vui vì được thấy một nhà thờ hoàn hảo mà họ đã nhiều lần được nghe nhưng mãi đến giờ mới được thấy tận mắt, người già vui đến rớt nước mắt vì khoảnh khắc đó như một cuộc hội ngộ của những người thân sau 60 năm xa vắng...
Nhà thờ Đức Bà và sông Elbe
Nhà thờ mới được hoàn thiện ngày 31-10-2005, sớm hơn so với dự kiến để chào mừng 800 năm ngày thành lập Dresden. Kể từ đó đến nay đã có hơn 2,5 lượt triệu người vào thăm nhà thờ, nó không chỉ dành cho con chiên mà còn cho toàn bộ người dân ở Dresden và khách du lịch và dù không có hội đoàn các con chiên riêng, nhưng đây là nơi bất cứ ai cũng có thể vào thăm và dự lễ thánh. Đặc biệt, tại đây thường xuyên diễn ra các buổi hòa nhạc của Dàn nhạc giao hưởng Dresden và các dàn nhạc nổi tiếng khác.
Kiến trúc nhà thờ ở phía trong tương đối giống và lộng lẫy như một nhà hát opera với âm thanh rất chuẩn vì thế những buổi hòa nhạc ở đây sẽ mang lại cho mọi người những cảm xúc thật mới lạ. Hấp dẫn và thú vị nhất với tôi là các buổi hòa nhạc vào dịp lễ Giáng sinh, tuy không là người theo đạo nhưng những ngày này vào trong nhà thờ xem lễ thánh và nghe hòa nhạc có cảm giác thật đặc biệt khó diễn tả bằng lời.
Điểm đáng chú ý nữa là những bức tranh vẽ trên trần của nhà thờ. Họa sĩ vẽ lại những bức tranh này đã phải dày công tìm kiếm học hỏi để có thể vẽ đúng như họa sỹ người Ý đã vẽ cách đây 260 năm.
Cũng khá hấp dẫn và thú vị khi trèo lên tháp nhà thờ, phía trên mái vòm nổi tiếng để ngắm nhìn khung cảnh thành phố với dòng sông Elbe uốn lượn và lững lờ chảy quanh khu phố cổ. Cách đây 20 năm ai dám nghĩ một ngày nào đó lại được trèo lên nóc nhà thờ Đức Bà để hưởng những ngọn gió từ sông Elbe thổi đến, để ngắm nhìn nhà hát opera, để xem cung vua Zwinger nổi tiếng thế giới hay lâu đài của dòng họ Wettin từ trên tháp của nhà thờ Đức Bà, linh hồn của cả một thành phố vốn một thời nổi tiếng khắp thế giới.

«Για όσους θα σωθούν, η χρηστική αξία του Πνεύματος είναι πολύ κατώτερη από αυτή της σάρκας: Το έργο του Πνεύματος είναι ικανό να καλύψει ολόκληρο το σύμπαν, να διαπεράσει όλα τα βουνά, τα ποτάμια, τις λίμνες και τους ωκεανούς, αλλά το έργο της σάρκας σχετίζεται πιο αποτελεσματικά με κάθε άτομο, με το οποίο έχει επαφή. Επιπλέον, η σάρκα του Θεού με απτή μορφή μπορεί να γίνει καλύτερα κατανοητή και να την εμπιστευτεί ο άνθρωπος και μπορεί να εμβαθύνει περαιτέρω τη γνώση του ανθρώπου για τον Θεό και να αφήσει στον άνθρωπο μια πιο βαθιά εντύπωση για τις πραγματικές πράξεις του Θεού. Το έργο του Πνεύματος περιβάλλεται από μυστήριο κι έτσι, είναι δύσκολο για τα θνητά όντα να το κατανοήσουν κι ακόμα πιο δύσκολο να το δουν κι έτσι, μπορούν να στηριχθούν μόνο σε κενές φαντασιώσεις. Το έργο της σάρκας, ωστόσο, είναι κανονικό, βασίζεται στην πραγματικότητα, διαθέτει πλούσια σοφία και είναι γεγονός που μπορεί να παρατηρηθεί και από τα μάτια του ανθρώπου. Ο άνθρωπος μπορεί προσωπικά να βιώσει τη σοφία του έργου του Θεού και δεν χρειάζεται να χρησιμοποιεί την πλούσια φαντασία του. Αυτή είναι η ακρίβεια και η πραγματική αξία του έργου του ενσαρκωμένου Θεού. Το Πνεύμα μπορεί να κάνει μόνο πράγματα που είναι αόρατα για τον άνθρωπο και που είναι δύσκολο να τα φανταστεί κανείς, όπως, για παράδειγμα, η διαφώτιση του Πνεύματος, η κίνηση του Πνεύματος και η καθοδήγηση του Πνεύματος, αλλά για τον νοήμονα άνθρωπο, αυτά δεν παρέχουν κάποιο σαφές νόημα. Παρέχουν μόνο ένα συγκινητικό ή ένα ευρύ νόημα και δεν μπορούν να δώσουν οδηγίες με λέξεις. Το έργο του ενσαρκωμένου Θεού, ωστόσο, είναι πολύ διαφορετικό: Έχει ακριβή καθοδήγηση μέσω λέξεων, έχει σαφές θέλημα και έχει σαφείς στόχους που απαιτεί. Κι έτσι, ο άνθρωπος δεν χρειάζεται να ψάχνεται ή να χρησιμοποιεί τη φαντασία του, πόσο μάλλον να κάνει εικασίες. Αυτή είναι η σαφήνεια του έργου στη σάρκα και η μεγάλη του διαφορά από το έργο του Πνεύματος. Το έργο του Πνεύματος είναι κατάλληλο μόνο για ένα περιορισμένο πεδίο και δεν μπορεί να αντικαταστήσει το έργο της σάρκας. Το έργο της σάρκας δίνει στον άνθρωπο πολύ ακριβέστερους και αναγκαίους στόχους και πολύ πιο πραγματική, πολύτιμη γνώση απ’ ότι το έργο του Πνεύματος».

March is apparently question month. To ask me a question, post a comment here: toddpage.livejournal.com/370916.html or send me a flickr mail. [Or leave it here if anomynity is not of any importance - the lj post comments are screened so that only I can see them]
All questions: Here
Question 5:What was it like, first realizing that you might be gay? When did you first wonder, when did you accept it, when did you act on it? How did you feel about it all?
The first time I realized I was gay I was 12 years old, taking a shower. I was not thinking about anything in particular, and out of nowhere, as I leaned to turn the water off, I realized: "Shit. I'm gay." I had never really lined things up. I knew I tended to try to help certain people at the store more than others. I'd never considered the fact that the ones I made efforts to help were men, had chest and facial hair, and were usually of a slightly larger build. [Yeah, even then I pursued the "bear" type.] All of a sudden things clicked into place. I was terrified. I hated it. I decided right then and there, that I would not be. I would not be gay. I would control it. Stop it. I could make this not be true, and like girls. I would find a woman, make her my wife, have kids and a dog, and live the straight life. There was nothing to say I couldn't fix this. And like that, I turned a switch in my mind off, and began some pretty hardcore denial. I still tended to help certain customers, and, suffice to say, I was not immune to knowledge of the internet. But somehow I managed to convince myself that despite the fact that I still gazed at men, I was straight. I wasn't aware of it even. I did denial extremely well, and forgot my discovery [until I was ready to deal with it.] It wasn't terribly difficult, honestly. Few people in my school interested me... in that way... and it would've been extremely complicated to be out at my all-boys catholic high school as it is. Either way, I ignored it. I went on one, awkward, date with my best female friend from high school. [Our theatre program did shows with the sister school's girls.]
My freshman year of college, I sunk further in, which led to my second realization. I dated a girl from my school who is a wonderful person, and very pretty, for about 2 weeks. Maybe 3. We'd hold hands, and cuddle when the group of us watched movies, and we went to dinner and a movie once. Every night, I'd walk her home to her dorm, and give her a hug, then walk to my dorm. Something missing from this situation? Ah, yes, at this point, we perhaps should have kissed. Something about it, the idea in itself, held me back. And the last evening... 2.5 weeks in, when it could be put off no longer, as she was my girlfriend at this point... I realized that I needed to kiss her good night. And as I leaned in to do so, it hit me again, in this order. "Oh, man... I really don't want to do this. FUCK. I'm gay." As I'm leaning in, I maneuver into what is clearly the worlds most awkward hug, and uncomfortably tell her "Good night"
Some history of me at this point. I am a pius, naive, freshman at a very conservative catholic college - my college was in fact #2 in the nation for most homophobic on the Princeton Review I have never touched alcohol, and at this point still believe I will not do so until I am 21. I go to church every sunday, and I go to "Prayer and Praise" every wednesday evening. As a general rule, I stop by the Harkins Hall chapel once every day or so because it is small, quiet, and I can pray there. I do all my homework in the chapel basement. I have hidden myself in this. I believe what I am told, but there is no strong faith behind it. It is a place I can fit in, where I know the rules and what is expected of me. At the same time I fight anyone who says that being gay is evil. [I HATE the word homosexual and homosexuality. It's so clerical.]
It is 2 am on a friday night, in late november, and I am now re-realizing I am gay. I am realizing that this may not be something for me to control. I am still very much hateful of the fact. This turns inward. I hate myself, and loath every part of me that makes me feel this way. I am already an outcast from most social situations, and awkward, the last thing I needed was this extra load. People would hate me. All of them. I'm sure of it. All my friends will leave me and hate me. I'll have to start enjoying shopping, and I'll probably have to listen to Madonna instead of punk rock. But no. Maybe this is still fixable. I had convinced myself that with great prayer, God could take this away. I started being more vigilant, praying daily, fixating myself on anything I could that would help me push away from this. I told the girl that something was up, and I needed to figure it out. She respected that, and I think knew EXACTLY what was up. I would cry in church, praying so hard that I shook, hoping and calling to God to let me find women attractive. Or at least to stop finding men attractive. Anything. Anything to avoid dealing with or accepting it, me. Somehow, this didn't work. Surprising, I know.
So, I had to deal with it. I had to start accepting me. That this was an uncontrollable aspect of who and what I was. It was a piece of me. It was something that had been created in me, like the color of my eyes, or the color of my hair. I turned to the internet. Looking at forums, and still looking for loopholes. I joined a forum for the young and gay and talked it through with people there. I talked with some people who had experience, [Bruin, creator of Bear With Me gave me an excellent X-Men analogy, that I remember specifically.] All of this occurred over the length of the second semester.
No one else knew at this point. I had come to a sort of shaky acceptance with it... but it was very weak. I wasn't confident in it, and I still hated it. I still didn't want it to be true, but I was at least aware that it was something outside of my control. Which, to be fair, is a big step in it's own. I was carrying it by myself though. Till a cast party. It was the second cast party for Brigadoon. There was a particularly homophobic person in the cast, who had written a letter in The Cowl the week before comparing homosexuality to cancer. As a joke, we had discussed one of the guys drunkenly kissing him. [We we're freshman, give us a break] This was the second time I had ever had alcohol, and I still hadn't learned how to drink, or how to control when I drink. My friend, Joe, suggests I do it, and I blurt out "No. Not until I come out."
And then I realize what I'd done, and leave. Joe follows me, and confronts me... I tell him it was a joke, and he rolls his eyes. It's the next day and we're having dinner when he asks me about it. And I slowly tell him that I thought it was true. I didn't know where on the kinsey scale I was [I'd recently discovered the scale, and I thought it was fancy] but I had a hunch it was true. At some point in the next month, the girl I'd dated asked me what had happened and I'd told her too. That was two people. And I had told them I was still not sure. Come graduation week. I was really the only person in my group of friends on campus for the week, and I read books the entire time. I read Augusten Burrough's 'Running with Scissors', then Dry, then David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" Believe it or not, these were the first books I'd read about or by gay people - at least to my knowledge. I was still looking for loopholes but I was recognizing that other people were like this, and they managed to survive life. I started gaining a little bit of confidence. I went home for the summer and, very shyly, got the 2 books on gay subjects out of my library, and read through them, looking for understanding. Looking for some kind of knowledge about who and what I was. I tend to read about things before I go into them. Alot.
Somehow, I decided I was ready to come out to my parents. I don't know if I decided I was ready, or if I decided it was the right thing to do. This was a horrible decision at this time, because my confidence levels were still extremely low. I nervously and carefully sat them down at the dinner table, feeling my heart in my chest. Terrified. The second or third most awful feeling I've ever felt. And I told them "I think I'm gay." I had prepared for various responses, based on my books, but life, surprisingly [sarcasm], doesn't run like books. They did not express hate, or anger, and told me that they would never love me any less... but that they did not think I was gay. That perhaps it was a phase. That everyone questioned it at some point or another, and that I needed more time to know for sure. Essentially, that the conclusion I had clawed my way too, was wrong. I didn't know how to respond, and instead of standing my ground, conceded that it was possible. We made dinner and watched Shrek. [My parents, by the way, are amazingly supportive people, who I have put through a lot, and who love and accept me for who I am, through everything I've done. They take the details of my life quite well. I don't want anyone thinking less of the two wonderful people who brought my life. This is something that for them, as for me, would take some adjusting to. And they have adjusted to it, now, and support me fully]
Nothing further was said. The response I'd received had shaken the confidence. I still knew I was attracted to guys, but what happened from there? I told another friend, a close female friend from PC, and her response was amazing. She told me she was proud of me for coming to terms with it, and that she was so happy for me. She was so... supportive. The people I'd told so far had expressed acceptance... but this was the first time support in it had come. It was surprising, and my confidence in myself and my ability to cope with it grew. I went back to school and started talking a little less furtively. And on October 10th, I got an IM from Joe: "So... tomorrows national coming out day... you gonna tell everyone?" I had never even thought about telling the rest of my friends. "I guess so. Might as well now, gonna have to do it eventually, right?" "Yup." I then sent the girlfriend an IM telling her my plan.
So, yeah. I came out on National Coming Out Day. Not because of the holiday, but because the holiday had kind've reminded me that it was something I should do. All my friends were in the cafe, eating lunch, and before some left for class, I said "I have to say something." *silence* "I'm queer."
Oh, how I regret saying "I'm queer". I had chosen it carefully, it was an umbrella term, and it allowed me retreat, should things turn a direction that I didn't favor. 3 or 4 raised their eyebrows in shock, 2 laughed. [Kaitlin told me later her exact reaction was "Well, yeah."] Only 1 person in my group of friends reacted poorly... and she kind've cast herself away. I still don't talk to her. It was kind've amazing. I could start talking about all the shit I had bottled up openly, and I didn't have to fit any mold. I was, amusingly, now requested by friends to do things like go to the mall, or go dancing. I think this was hilarious. I had not been hiding any desires or actions... so upon coming out I still hated shopping, and still, for the most part, was not interested in an evening of dancing. Still my confidence grew, and I got to be really okay with it. I started having recognizable crushes, and though I was still uncomfortable with some aspects, I made progress.
That covers all of the acceptance bit. It's still a process for me in some ways. I notice I have this instinct within me to push against anything stereotypical. I refused to listen to Madonna, or Cher... would not even give them a try, and I still respond to some "gay" things with a negative attitude. I'm working on this. I recently listened to Madonna, to give it a chance. I still don't really like it, but at least now I've given it a chance. I mean, the girl has some definite pipes... and Like a Prayer is hella fun, but it's just not something I'd listen to for the hell of it. I'm teaching myself to recognize that doing things that are stereotypical aren't bad, as long as you aren't doing them to fit the stereotype. And not doing them to avoid the stereotype is just another way of letting the stereotype control you.
When I first acted on it is a tricky business. There had been some minor flirting, back and forth, with a freshman named ... gah, we'll say Alex. Alex was bearish, and cute, but personality-wise, not at all a match for me. As has been discussed, this is important. I was not really interested, and had tried to express that in nice ways... or avoid it anyway. We did crew together for a show called My Sister In This House, and at the second cast party, I had a lot of beer. Like, A-LOT. This was probably my 7th time ever drinking [ a year later ] and I was pretty hammered. Okay, very hammered. I was blurrily aware of the goings-ons, it was very late, and few people we're left at the gathering. I was warm, and I came to realize it was because Alex was standing behind me, with his arms around me. It felt nice, and I was hammered, so I let it occur. Then he started to pull me into the room where no one else was. A little something triggered in my brain, and I resisted. But another tug and I followed. We were standing in the room when this exchange happened:
Alex: "You're beautiful."
Me: *pause* "You smell like soap."
Alex: "Is that a good thing?"
Me: *long pause* "Yes."
At this point, he licked the back of my neck, which felt nice, but weird, but didn't have much [drunk] time to recognize it, as he leaned in and put his tongue straight in my mouth.
This woke me up pretty quickly. I'm pretty glad, too, had it been a subtle kiss first, I might have a story I'd regret. Who knows though. I told him "No." and he asked me if that meant just now, or ever. I said I didn't know.
He didn't talk to me for a year. I'm not entirely sure I blame him. I'm not sure if that counts as acting on it, as I was barely aware, and didn't really act except for to realize I was not comfortable with it. But it was my first kiss, regardless. My first real acting on it was a year later. February of my junior year of college, and began with a meeting for coffee, then a kiss in a Chili's parking lot. It moved forward from there into my first relationship.
To sum up: Ages 12 and 18, never really wondered, it just HIT me, 19 and 20, and I hated it. Alot. I don't anymore though. I'm really actually comfortable with it now. I like that it's a part of me, and I no longer feel any desire to change it. I don't believe in gay pride, because I think it's something embedded within me, just like I wouldn't be proud of having blue eyes, I wouldn't be proud of being gay... but I do embrace it as a part of me, and support it. I am comfortable with who I am, finally, at 22, and it feels glorious. I've gotten beyond accepting it, and I support it in myself. Whenever you read about people's coming outs, they always refer to coming out to themself first. I think we can add a step and that is supporting themself in that. I am finally there. Not without my share of work left to accomplish further, but I have made great progress, and I feel certain I will make more in times to come.

Devocional diario | Ya entiendo el verdadero significado de “Consumado es”, lo que dijo el Señor Jesús
Esa mañana de domingo era como cualquier otra, cuando abrí mi Biblia, comencé mis devociones espirituales y vi que Hebreos 9:28 decía: “Así también Cristo, habiendo sido ofrecido una vez para llevar los pecados de muchos, aparecerá por segunda vez, sin relación con el pecado, para salvación de los que ansiosamente le esperan”. Cuando pensé en esto detenidamente, no pude evitar sentirme confundida. “Eso no puede ser”, pensé. “¿Acaso cuando el Señor Jesús dijo ‘Consumado es’ en la cruz no quiso decir que la obra de Dios para salvar al hombre se había completado totalmente? Cuando el Señor regrese, podremos entrar en el cielo inmediatamente y tener un banquete con el Señor, ¿cómo puede ser que esto diga que el Señor Jesús aparecerá de nuevo para salvar al hombre cuando Él regrese? ¿Qué es lo que significa esto?”.
Cuanto más pensaba en ello, más dudas tenía en mi corazón … “¡Esto no puede ser! Debo encontrar a alguien para compartir esta palabra conmigo”, pensé. Justo entonces, me vino a la mente mi compañera de trabajo de la iglesia, la hermana Xiao Xue. Solíamos hablar de la Biblia y justo en ese mismo momento la hermana Xiao Xue volvió de una reunión en otro sitio; no había nada que no me pudiera ayudar a encontrar.

ANNOUNCEMENT
In 2007 Planeta.com hosts an online conference focusing on Tourism and Migration which will highlight timely news and innovative work around the world.
www.planeta.com/ecotravel/tour/migration.html
ABOUT THE CONFERENCE - The Tourism and Migration E-Conference is Planeta's 18th formal e-conference. The format will differ from previous events in that dialogue will run over six months.
January/February - Dialogue among co-sponsors and those who register early.
March/April - Additional participants will be allowed entry in March and April.
May/June - Participants will conclude the dialogue by preparing recommendations and announcing individual and collaborative projects.
BACKGROUND - Tourism enterprises are increasingly considered as as providing an alternative to migration and a vehicle to alleviate poverty in developing economies by creating jobs. Likewise, tourists are staying longer in places -- blurring the distinction between tourism and migration. The Tourism and Migration E-Conference will address these issues and allow participants time to prepare recommendations and announce individual and collaborative endeavors.
REQUIREMENTS - Active participants are asked to have a professional interest in tourism or migration. You don't have to be an expert in both topics. Active participants will be required to post an introduction and to post at least two messages per month. An account on the Planeta Forum is necessary for active participation, though the posts can be read by all.
SPONSORS - Sponsorship opportunities are available.
YOUR TURN
CALL FOR PAPERS - Planeta.com is seeking ordinal essays and recommended links to resources elsewhere on the Web. If you care to contribute an article or suggest a link, consult our writers' guidelines.

QUESTIONS
We ask participants to reflect upon the following questions:
What is the difference between slow travel and migration?
How effective is tourism in creating jobs and providing an alternative to migration?
What role do long-term foreign residents play in educating visitors?
Are investments in tourism training and infrastructure a viable outlet for migrant remittances?
To what degree does tourism development displace local people?

Geoffroy normally works with art formats like the EMERGENCY ROOM
to stimulate urgent expression by artist about today 's emergencies :
www.emergencyrooms.org/formats.html
www.colonel.dk contact : emergencyrooms@gmail.comThierry Geoffroy/ Colonel will be exhibiting in the museum Kunsthalle Mannheim from october 2018 part of the exhibition Konstruktion der Welt .Kunst und Ökonomie
Constructing the World: Art and Economy 1919-1939 and 2008-2018
10/12/18 to 02/03/19
Ten years after the peak of the global financial crisis in 2008, which profoundly shook the economic systems of America and Europe and had a lasting effect on present-day life, this topical exhibition is the first to illustrate the economy’s dramatic influence on art and to make global comparisons, demonstrating these in an analysis of two separate eras. Economic phenomena in the classical modernism of the 1920s and 30s are not only explored by focusing on art from the German Weimar Republic, the Soviet Union, and the United States, but also juxtaposed with artists of the present day.
Curatorial team: Dr. Eckhart Gillen (Berlin), Dr. Ulrike Lorenz, Dr. Sebastian Baden
Project Lead: Dr. Inge Herold, Assistence: Lisa Valentina Riedel, M. A. mult., Elisabeth Bohnet, M.A.
How does contemporary art reflect the world of work today? The catalogue for the second part of the exhibition Constructing the World at the Kunsthalle Mannheim takes a look at this question. The focus of it is primarily on artistic positions of the past decade that deal with the social, political, and economic effects of the most recent economic crisis after 2008. The works address and interrogate new production conditions and developments on the labor market as well as political conflicts. The accompanying publication provides fascinating insights into the diverse artistic positions.

Our Lady & The English Martyrs, Cambridge
stepneyrobarts.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/our-lady-english-ma...
Yesterday I revisited St Peter for internals and finished of Cambridge, visiting seven Victorian built churches only one of which, Our Lady & The English Martyrs, is worth writing up.
At first sight I wrote OLEM off as a Victorian Gothic monstrosity but as I wandered around the exterior I was struck by the quality of the building and the interior stunned me with lots of rather good glass and impressive architecture (oh and apart from three revisits, Babraham, Guilden Morden and Stow cum Quy, that finished the north west quadrant).
The Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs, or OLEM, is situated in the heart of the city of Cambridge. An imposing example of the 19th Century Gothic Revival, it was built to the designs of Dunn & Hansom of Newcastle between 1885 and 1890, and founded solely by Mrs Yolande Marie Louise Lyne-Stephens, a former ballet dancer at the Paris Opera and Drury Lane, London, and widow of a wealthy banker. She promised to build the church on the feast of Our Lady of the Assumption, and Monsignor Christopher Scott - the first Rector - also wished to commemorate the Catholic Martyrs who died between 1535 and 1681, over thirty of whom had been in residence at the University.
Designed by architects Dunn and Hansom of Newcastle and built by the Cambridge firm of Rattee and Kett, OLEM is constructed in Casterton, Ancaster and Combe Down Stone. The church is a traditional cruciform structure in the early-decorated style with a large tower at the crossing, a polygonal apse and a west bell tower with a 65-metre spire, visible for miles around Cambridge. Quite often, it is quoted by visitors and local residents as a location point. The approximate internal dimensions of the church are: length 48 meters [156 ft] width across the aisles 16 meters [51 ft] width at the transepts 22 meters [71 ft], the height of the nave 15 meters [71ft].
Inside and over the west door stands the figure of Our Lady of the Assumption crowned with lilies and standing on the crescent moon with the vanquished serpent beneath. The west window shows the English Martyrs arranged in two principal groups, the clergy on the south side with St John Fisher in their midst and the laity on the north grouped round St Thomas More.
Beside the South aisle is an ancient statue of Our Lady with the Child Jesus. This statue is understood to be a gift in 1850 from Emmanuel College, which was built on the site of a Dominican Priory dating back to 1274. The Church of the Black Friars of Cambridge contained a statue of Our Blessed Lady to which much pilgrimage was had. Although unconfirmed this could be that statue.
The Chapel of the Holy Souls with the book of Remembrance is located at the west end of the south aisle. The sculpture above the altar depicts the solace and relief of the Holy Souls in Purgatory through the intercession of Our Lady and the angel who comforted Our Lord in Gethsemane. The Chapel is now appropriately used at the two great Christian celebrations: at Easter for the Empty Tomb indicating the Risen Lord, and at Christmas for the Crib.
The aisle windows were almost completely destroyed when the church was struck by a bomb on 1941, but were subsequently replaced in their original form. They epitomise the various sufferings of the English Martyrs, their being brought before the Council, racked, hung, drawn and quartered in the sight and sympathy of the faithful. The windows of the north aisle portray Carthusians, St Thomas Moore, B. Margaret Pole and others, while the south aisle is made a “Fisher Aisle”, devoted to scenes from the life of St John, Cardinal Bishop of Rochester, who in so many important ways is identified with Cambridge.
The best general impression of the interior is obtained from the gateway in the iron screen dividing the nave from the ante-chapel. The heads of the four great preachers of Our Lady’s Graces are carved in the four corners of the nave. The windows along the nave represent saints connected with the Church in Britain, arranged approximately in chronological order from east to west with a few additional figures in the eastern windows.
The Rood which is between the nave and the sanctuary is of the type known as “Majestas”; the figure of Our Lord, with glorified wounds, robed in alb, stole and pallium [as High Priest] and crowned [as King “reigning from the Tree”]. This was the earliest type of crucifix; the realistic figure, now almost universal, did not come into general use until the beginning of the thirteenth century. The cross, inspired by that at Nuremberg, is about 6 metres high, carved in oak; the figures of Christ and of Our Lady and of Saint John are of Kauri pine. They were carved locally by Mr. B. Maclean Leach and completed and blessed in 1914.
Beyond the present, modern altar is the High Altar with the relics of Saints Felix and Constantia, martyrs of the early Church. The tabernacle and ornaments of the altar are of exquisite French workmanship from Lyons. The baldacchino which covers the High Altar is similar to that over the tomb of Robert the Wise (1275-1343) at Santa Chiara, Naples. It is one of the earliest forms of adornment of a Christian altar. At the top is the figure of Our Lord in glory supported on each side by angels in act of adoration.
The design and the re-ordering of the sanctuary was done by Mr. Gerard Goalen of Harlow after the Second Vatican Council. On 7th April, 1973, Bishop Charles Grant consecrated the present central. The original High Altar has subsequently been used mainly for reservation of the Blessed Sacrament.

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

9/11, The Oklahoma City bombing, Virginia Tech, the Watts Riots, the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Presidents Abraham Lincoln and John F Kennedy, all horrific acts of violence, all catastrophic, all senseless.
Imagine a world without violence, a world of peace. This sentiment echoes the lyrics to John Lennon’s 1971 song, “Imagine”.
The concept of the tour was conceived after the piano was showcased at the IMAGINE exhibition at Goss Gallery in Dallas, Texas, 2006
The photographs will feature in a book which will spread a worldwide message of peace, transcending time, cultures and boundaries.
The piano has been photographed at:
Dealy Plaza in Dallas, Texas where President John F Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd,1963
Memphis, Tennessee. at the National Civil Rights Museum (previously the Lorraine Motel) where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated on April 4th, 1968
The Ford Theatre in Washington D.C., the site of President Lincoln’s assassination 142 years ago.
The Walls at Texas State Penitentiary in Huntsville, Texas, on the day of a prisoner’s execution.
The Oklahoma City National Memorial on the 12th anniversary of the bombing tragedy.
The site of the former Branch Davidian Compound where over 80 people died 13 years ago.
The home of Bill Clayton who committed suicide 12 years ago after being beaten by a gay hate gang.

In Texarkana at the site where the Phantom Murderer killed his 1st two victims in 1946
Outside the Courthouse in Marion, West Memphis where the West Memphis Three were convicted.
Blacksburg, Virginia. The location of the Virginia Tech tragedy.
Future planned photographs to be taken in the US and UK, include the site of the World Trade Center attacks and London bombings.
“Kenny and George’s deepest wish is to imagine a world of peace, a world without violence,” said Caroline True, creative director. "The selection of these sites evokes a deep sense of emotion for everyone. Capturing these images of this special piano on which a song of peace was composed is the heart of this project."
Background
George Michael bought the Lennon piano at an auction in October 2000. Considered the most expensive piece of pop memorabilia, experts have estimated its value at US$8 million to $12 million. Michael and his partner, Kenny Goss, owner of Goss Gallery in Dallas, want to further strengthen the project’s peaceful message, by having “Imagine” performed on the piano at each stop. A video documentary and a published volume of the images are under development, with plans to donate proceeds to charity.
The song, “Imagine,” was first released in 1971 and was already John Lennon’s most famous post-Beatles song, but it took on a whole new life of its own following Lennon’s murder in December 1980. When first released, “Imagine” reached No. 3 in America and No. 6 in Britain but after Lennon’s death in December 1980, the song gave him a posthumous No. 1.
Lennon bought the piano in December 1970, had it delivered to studios at his home in Tittenhurst Park in Berkshire, composed and recorded “Imagine” on it. The piano is a simple upright style instrument, not the white piano which graced the cover of the album. In 1992, it was bought by a private British collector who put it up for auction in October 2000.

Southern Pacific Railway Post Office #12, Travel Town, Griffith Park, Los Angeles, California
This narrowgauge truck set, cast in Sacramento, CA by Southern Pacific, is one of two designs of 're-gauge-able' trucks on display inside the Travel Town Museum building. The wheels can be detatched from the replaceable axle by four bolts within the inside face, and a new beam can be cut from wood for the bolster support and kingpin. The sliding bearings on the end of each axle predated roller or ball bearings, and could generate a great deal of heat from friction. Hopefully the grease packed under the hinged covers was warm enough to liquify and penetrate the bearing gap. One of the primary reasons a caboose had bay windows or a coupula above, and it's placement at the end of the train, was to keep a vigilant watch for the "hotbox" - an improperly lubricated bearing would cause excessive wear, or start a fire!
Notice that there are no springs in this design, any spring action is from the steel and wood supports.
The axles and crossblocks on this Southern Pacific Railway Post Office #12 bogie truck are fabricated of wood a design to facilitate re-gauging this 3' narrow-gauge truck to standard gauge 4'8½". The trucks are unsprung, which is to say the design does not incorporate springs, and there is a very narrow bolster around the kingpin. So, in addition to feeling every gap in the uneven and wavy rail, swaying and rocking was magnified at speeds above 12 miles per hour - working to precisely sort mail along the route was a very uncomfortable occupation.

DONATED: 1960 BY SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD
This pre-20th Century, wooden car was put to a variety of uses by its owners: caboose, baggage car, railway postal car, and most notably, a baggage-mail combination. Mail transportation by rail had existed as long as the railroads themselves. In Britain, mail was already being sorted within rail cars in the late 1830's. This practice was imitated on a few American railroads, but came into widespread use only after the Civil War. Perhaps no more efficient mail system could have existed than that of the railway postal system. Both local and long-distance trains included a car equipped with pigeonholes, sorting bags and tables, cancellation stamps, and one or more frenzied clerks trying to sort a bag of mail picked up at one station, before arriving at the next station each would be only ten or twenty minutes down the road. Early in their history, these railway postal cars (RPO's) shared space with express baggage service. Later, as the system grew more elaborate, entire 60- or 80-foot RPO cars were specially built for that purpose, and resembled small versions of a post office.
As with other aspects of railroading, RPO cars and their clerks have a lore all their own. The metal arms which swung out from the side of the car to catch a hanging mail bag when the train was not scheduled to stop at a station are collectors items, as are any existing cancellation stamps. Clerks carried guns for protection against outlaws wanting to steal the mail. In the first decades, clerks worked on cars furnished either with fire-causing wood stoves or without any heat at all. Doors could not be left open for security reasons, so the cars were barely ventilated in the summer heat. If they
had toilet facilities at all, they were crude and rarely private. Sometimes a lone clerk, sometimes a handful of men tripping over and stepping on each other, slaved at sorting and canceling mail, catching a new bag every twenty minutes, and simultaneously kicking off a bag sorted for that stop.
By the 1960's, railway mail, like railway passenger service and some railway freight service, was failing in favor of air transport of mail. The last RPO ran between Washington D. C. and New York in June 30, 1977.

Documenta From Wikipedia,
The Fridericianum during documenta (13)
documenta is an exhibition of contemporary art which takes place every five years in Kassel, Germany. It was founded by artist, teacher and curator Arnold Bode in 1955 as part of the Bundesgartenschau (Federal Horticultural Show) which took place in Kassel at that time.[1] It was an attempt to bring Germany up to speed with modern art, both banishing and repressing the cultural darkness of Nazism.[2] This first documenta featured many artists who are generally considered to have had a significant influence on modern art (such as Picasso and Kandinsky). The more recent documentas feature art from all continents; nonetheless most of it is site-specific.
Every documenta is limited to 100 days of exhibition, which is why it is often referred to as the "museum of 100 days".[3] Documenta is not a selling exhibition. It rarely coincides with the three other major art world events: the Venice Biennale, Art Basel and Skulptur Projekte Münster, but in 2017, all four were open simultaneously.
Etymology of documenta
The name of the exhibition is an invented word. The term is supposed to demonstrate the intention of every exhibition (in particular of the first documenta in 1955) to be a documentation of modern art which was not available for the German public during the Nazi era. Rumour spread from those close to Arnold Bode that it was relevant for the coinage of the term that the Latin word documentum could be separated into docere (Latin for teach) and mens (Latin for intellect) and therefore thought it to be a good word to describe the intention and the demand of the documenta.[4]
Each edition of documenta has commissioned its own visual identity, most of which have conformed to the typographic style of solely using lowercase letters, which originated at the Bauhaus.[5]
History
Stadtverwaldung by Joseph Beuys, oaktree in front of the museum Fridericianum, documenta 7
Art professor and designer Arnold Bode from Kassel was the initiator of the first documenta. Originally planned as a secondary event to accompany the Bundesgartenschau, this attracted more than 130,000 visitors in 1955. The exhibition centred less on "contemporary art“, that is art made after 1945: instead, Bode wanted to show the public works which had been known as "Entartete Kunst" in Germany during the Nazi era: Fauvism, Expressionism, Cubism, Blauer Reiter, Futurism and Pittura Metafisica. Therefore, abstract art, in particular the abstract paintings of the 1920s and 1930s, was the focus of interest in this exhibition.
Over time, the focus shifted to contemporary art. At first, the show was limited to works from Europe, but soon covered works by artists from the Americas, Africa and Asia. 4. documenta, the first ever to turn a profit, featured a selection of Pop Art, Minimal Art, and Kinetic Art.[6] Adopting the theme of Questioning Reality – Pictorial Worlds Today, the 1972 documenta radically redefined what could be considered art by featuring minimal and conceptual art, marking a turning point in the public acceptance of those styles.[7] Also, it devoted a large section to the work of Adolf Wolfli, the great Swiss outsider, then unknown. Joseph Beuys performed repeatedly under the auspices of his utopian Organization for Direct Democracy.[8] Additionally, the 1987 documenta show signaled another important shift with the elevation of design to the realm of art – showing an openness to postmodern design.[9] Certain key political dates for wide-reaching social and cultural upheavals, such as 1945, 1968 or 1976/77, became chronological markers of documenta X (1997), along which art's political, social, cultural and aesthetic exploratory functions were traced.[10] Documenta11 was organized around themes like migration, urbanization and the post-colonial experience,[11] with documentary photography, film and video as well as works from far-flung locales holding the spotlight.[7] In 2012, documenta (13) was described as "[a]rdently feminist, global and multimedia in approach and including works by dead artists and selected bits of ancient art".[12]
Criticism
documenta typically gives its artists at least two years to conceive and produce their projects, so the works are often elaborate and intellectually complex.[13] However, the participants are often not publicised before the very opening of the exhibition. At documenta (13), the official list of artists was not released until the day the show opened.[14] Even though curators have often claimed to have gone outside the art market in their selection, participants have always included established artists. In the documenta (13), for example, art critic Jerry Saltz identified more than a third of the artists represented by the renowned Marian Goodman Gallery in the show.[14]
Directors
The first four documentas, organized by Arnold Bode, established the exhibition's international credentials. Since the fifth documenta (1972), a new artistic director has been named for each documenta exhibition by a committee of experts. Documenta 8 was put together in two years instead of the usual five. The original directors, Edy de Wilde and Harald Szeemann, were unable to get along and stepped down. They were replaced by Manfred Schneckenburger, Edward F. Fry, Wulf Herzogenrath, Armin Zweite, and Vittorio Fagone.[15] Coosje van Bruggen helped select artists for documenta 7, the 1982 edition. documenta IX's team of curators consisted of Jan Hoet, Piero Luigi Tazzi, Denys Zacharopoulos, and Bart de Baere.[16] For documenta X Catherine David was chosen as the first woman and the first non-German speaker to hold the post. It is also the first and unique time that its website Documenta x was conceived by a curator (swiss curator Simon Lamunière) as a part of the exhibition. The first non-European director was Okwui Enwezor for Documenta11.[17]

2012's edition was organized around a central node, the trans-Atlantic melding of two distinct individuals who first encountered each other in the "money-soaked deserts of the United Arab Emirates". As an organizing principle it is simultaneously a commentary on the romantic potentials of globalization and also a critique of how digital platforms can complicate or interrogate the nature of such relationships. Curatorial agents refer to the concept as possessing a "fricative potential for productive awkwardness," wherein a twosome is formed for the purposes of future exploration.[23]
Venues
documenta is held in different venues in Kassel. Since 1955, the fixed venue has been the Fridericianum. The documenta-Halle was built in 1992 for documenta IX and now houses some of the exhibitions. Other venues used for documenta have included the Karlsaue park, Schloss Wilhelmshöhe, the Neue Galerie, the Ottoneum, and the Kulturzentrum Schlachthof. Though Okwui Enezor notably tried to subvert the euro-centric approach documenta had taken, he instigated a series of five platforms before the Documenta11 in Vienna, Berlin, New Delhi, St Lucia, and Lagos, in an attempt to take documenta into a new post-colonial, borderless space, from which experimental cultures could emerge. documenta 12 occupied five locations, including the Fridericianum, the Wilhelmshöhe castle park and the specially constructed "Aue-Pavillon", or meadow pavilion, designed by French firm Lacaton et Vassal.[24] At documenta (13) (2012), about a fifth of the works were unveiled in places like Kabul, Afghanistan, and Banff, Canada.[13]
There are also a number of works that are usually presented outside, most notably in Friedrichsplatz, in front of the Fridericianum, and the Karlsaue park. To handle the number of artworks at documenta IX, five connected temporary "trailers" in glass and corrugated metal were built in the Karlsaue.[25] For documenta (13), French architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal constructed the temporary "Aue-Pavillon" in the park.
Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus Rucker und Co.
A few of the works exhibited at various documentas remained as purchases in Kassel museums. They include 7000 Eichen by Joseph Beuys; Rahmenbau (1977) by Haus-Rucker-Co; Laserscape Kassel (1977) by Horst H. Baumann; Traumschiff Tante Olga (1977) by Anatol Herzfeld; Vertikaler Erdkilometer by Walter De Maria; Spitzhacke (1982) by Claes Oldenburg; Man walking to the sky (1992) by Jonathan Borofsky; and Fremde by Thomas Schütte (one part of the sculptures are installed on Rotes Palais at Friedrichsplatz, the other on the roof of the Concert Hall in Lübeck).
documenta archive
The extensive volume of material that is regularly generated on the occasion of this exhibition prompted Arnold Bode to create an archive in 1961. The heart of the archive’s collection comes from the files and materials of the documenta organization. A continually expanding video and image archive is also part of the collection as are the independently organized bequests of Arnold Bode and artist Harry Kramer.
Management
Visitors
In 1992, on the occasion of documenta IX, for the first time in the history of the documenta, more than half a million people traveled to Kassel.[26] The 2002 edition of documenta attracted 650,000 visitors, more than triple Kassel's population.[27] In 2007, documenta 12 drew 754,000 paying visitors, with more than one-third of the visitors coming from abroad and guests from neighboring Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria among the most numerous.[28] In 2012, documenta (13) had 904,992 visitors.[21]

lumbung
Short concept by ruangrupa for documenta 15
"We want to create a globally oriented, cooperative, interdisciplinary art and culture platform that will remain effective beyond the 100 days of documenta fifteen. Our curatorial approach aims at a different kind of collaborative model of resource use—economically, but also in terms of ideas, knowledge, programs, and innovation."
ruangrupa’s central curatorial approach for documenta fifteen is based on the principles of collectivity, resource building, and equal sharing. They aim to appeal not just to an art audience but to a variety of communities, and to promote local commitment and participation. Their approach is based on an international network of local, community-based organizations from the art and other cultural contexts and can be outlined by the Indonesian term lumbung. lumbung, directly translatable as “rice barn,” is a collective pot or accumulation system used in rural areas of Indonesia, where crops produced by a community are stored as a future shared common resource and distributed according to jointly determind criteria. Using lumbung as a model, documenta fifteen is a collective resource pot, operating under the logics of the commons. It is an agglomeration of ideas, stories, (wo)manpower, time, and other shareable resources. At the center of lumbung is the imagination and the building of these collective, shared resources into new models of sustainable ideas and cultural practices. This will be fostered by residencies, assemblies, public activities, and the development of tools.
Interdisciplinarity is key in this process. It is where art meets activism, management, and networking to gather support, understand environments, and identify local resources. These elements then create actions and spaces, intertwine social relations and transactions; they slowly grow and organically find a public form. This is a strategy “to live in and with society.” It imagines the relations an art institution has with its community by being an active constituent of it. Strategies are then developed based on proximity and shared desires.
The main principles of the process are:
• Providing space to gather and explore ideas
• Collective decision making
• Non-centralization
• Playing between formalities and informalities
• Practicing assembly and meeting points
• Architectural awareness
• Being spatially active to promote conversation
• A melting pot for and from everyone’s thoughts, energies, and ideas

Tentoonstelling 'Late Rembrandt', te zien van 12 februari tot en met 17 mei. Mijn reportage voor Nooit Meer Slapen is hier te beluisteren: www.radio1.nl/item/267256-De%20late%20Rembrandt.html
Hacker: "originally, someone who makes furniture with an axe", according to The Jargon File.
I think this shutter was made by a hacker... who use the axe to paint it, too.
Since the first 7 points of the hacker definition can also be used to describe myself, I bought this fancy toy to restore the original hacker work. After all, a sander called "Mouse" is perfect for a hacker... the problem is I'm always trying to turn the wheel ;-)
I've a heavy duty sander (8 kg!) which is good to sand the keel of an aircraft carrier (if you can find a wood one), but it is not very appropriate for small details.
I've seen this small sander at our local version of Home Depot for 35 euro, but it was out of stock and the clerk suggested me to visit the other shop, 50 km away. Before to waste a couple of hours and 7,50 euro of gasoline I asked him to check the inventory on their network, and he stared at me just like I've demanded a spare hadron collider. So I came home, check on eBay and found the same sander in Rome for 1 euro less, shipping included.
Next time I'll check eBay before to go to the shop... so I'll save another 15 km.
Now I guess you want to know the strobist infos...
- lens: SMC Pentax-DA 16-45mm F4.0 ED/AL
- flash on the left: Hanimex TZ1 in tele mode with standard diffuser - 0.13 GBP (yes! 0.16 euro!) on eBay
- left trigger: cactus like
- flash on the right: Vivitar 3500 Thiristor in wide mode, without diffuser - this one far more expensive, 10.50 GBP (13.26 euro) on eBay
- right trigger: ebay optical slave
See the setup below for the flash positions.
If you want to see the shutter "before" version, it had the same ugly color of the rest of this door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hacker: "originariamente, qualcuno che costruiva mobili con un'ascia", secondo The Jargon File.
Penso che questo scuro sia stato fatto da un hacker... che ha usato l'ascia pure per pitturarlo.
Visto che i primi 7 punti della definizione di hacker possono essere anche usati per descrivere me, ho comprato questo bel giocattolino per restaurare il lavoro originale dell'hacker. Dopotutto, una levigatrice chiamata "Mouse" è perfetta per un hacker... il problema è che cerco sempre di girare la rotella ;-)
Ho una levigatrice pesante (8 kg!) che sarebbe buona per levigare la chiglia di una portaerei (se ne trovate una in legno), ma che non è molto appropriata per i piccoli dettagli.
Ho visto questa piccola levigatrice in una negozio di bricolage a 35 euro, ma era esaurita e il commesso mi ha suggerito di visitare l'altro negozio della catena, a 50 km di distanza. Prima di perderci un paio d'ore e 7.50 euro di benzina gli ho chiesto di verificare l'inventario sulla loro rete, e mi ha guardato come se gli avessi chiesto un collisore di adroni. Così me ne sono tornato a casa, ho guardato su eBay ed ho trovato la stessa levigatrice a Roma, per 1 euro meno spedizione compresa.
La prossima volta guarderò su eBay prima di andare fino al negozio... per risparmiare altri 15 km.
Ora immagino vorrete conoscere le info strobiste:
- ottica: SMC Pentax-DA 16-45mm F4.0 ED/AL
- flash a sinistra: Hanimex TZ1 in modo tele mode with diffusore standard - 0.13 GBP (si! 0.16 euro!) su eBay
- trigger a sinistra: tipo cactus
- flash a destra: Vivitar 3500 Thiristor in modo wide, senza diffusore - questo molto più costoso, 10.50 GBP (13.26 euro) on eBay
- trigger a destra: servoflash ottico preso su ebay
Guardatevi il setup più sotto per le posizioni dei flash.
Se volete sapere com'era lo scuro "prima", aveva lo stesso colore angoscioso del resto di questa porta.
Bought this shaving scuttle a few weeks back from a pottery artisan that has branched out into shaving scuttles. Julie Moore's pottery shop is called Dirty Bird and you can find her on the net here-
www.dirtybirdpottery.com/shavinggear.html
This particular scuttle, how you use is to fill the outer bowl with very hot water through the spout which will in turn, keep the lather you build in the bowl, hot, or as warm or hot as the water surrounding the bowl is
In fact, you do not want to use boiling water as it will (the high temperature) break down your lather. I use my tap water (from the hot faucet) which is 138 degrees f ...yes, I've read this temp with a dial thermometer
Typically the way I use it I fill the outside bowl with hot water and also the inside lather bowl with hot water too, to preheat, then I hop in the shower, prep my beard before shaving then when I'm out of the shower ready to shave I dump the water that I used for pre-heating and re-fill the outer bowl only. Then I proceed to build lather in the inner bowl
This scuttle keeps my lather very warm from my first shaving pass to the last pass. I like warm lather for my entire shave so this scuttle ranks high on my must have wet shaving gear list
In the scuttle (in this pic) you see one of my straight razors, my first Thiers Issard straight razor. Yes, there is oil on the blade. I leave oil on the blade and tang of all of my razors when I'm not using them to shave with. The humidity is high in my Fla. bathroom so I want to protect this carbon steel from rusting. Also pictured in the scuttle's bowl is my boar hair shaving brush. My badger shaving brush is sitting in the stand outside of the scuttle

The Holy Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats.
“It is wonderful to see them, for nearly all are maimed by the snakes: one has lost a nose, another an ear; the skin of one is torn, another is lame: one is blind of one eye, another of both. And it is a strange thing that at the hour for their food, at the sound of a bell, they collect at the monastery and when they have eaten enough, at the sound of that same bell, they all depart together to go fight the snakes.” - The Venetian Francesco Suriano (1484)

Oddity Central
The Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats is regarded as a sacred cat haven in Cyprus, as it’s name has been linked to felines for almost 2,000 years.
The original monastery was built in 327 AD, by Kalokeros, the governor of Cyprus appointed by Constantine the Great, and patronised by Saint Helen, the mother of Constantine the Great. At that time, a terrible drought affected the whole of Cypus, and the entire island was overrun with poisonous snakes which made building the monastery a dangerous affair. Many of the inhabitants left their homes and moved off the island, for fear of the snakes, but Saint Helen came up with a solution to the plague – she ordered 1,000 cats to be shipped in from Egypt and Palestine to fight the reptiles.
In the following years, the cats did their duty, hunting and killing most of the snakes in the Akrotiri Peninsula, which soon came to be known as the “Cat Peninsula”. The monks would use a bell to call the cats to the monastery at meal time, and then the felines were dispatched to their snake-hunting duties. Pilgrims from all around Europe traveled to the Holy Monastery of Saint Nicholas to see its feline guardians, and the discovered documents of a Venetian monk describe them as scarred, missing various body parts, some completely blind as a result of their relentless battle against the snakes.
According to the writings of Father Stephen de Lusignan, in 1580, the Byzantine monks at the Monastery of Saint Nicholas were awarded the surrounding lands, on one condition – they had to take care of at least 100 cats and feed them at least twice a day. Legend has it, the cats were so well trained they knew that when the bell rang once they had to go hunting for snakes, and when it rang a second time, it was meal time at the monastery.
During the Turkish invasion, the Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats was completely destroyed and its residing monks slaughtered or taken into captivity. Left without food and shelter, the cats left and wandered around the island, which explains the large number of cats currently living in Cyprus. Even now, locals appreciate their help in getting rid of the snakes centuries ago, and take good care of them, even if they’re strays.
After being rebuilt and abandoned several times, the modern history of the Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats began in 1983, when it was assigned to a group of nuns. When they arrived there wasn’t a cat in sight, but the number of snakes was once again overwhelming, so they did exactly what Saint Helen did over 1,500 years ago – they brought in a couple of cats. Their numbers grew, over the years, and there are now six nuns at the monastery and over 70 felines. Many people bring abandoned cats to this place, and the nuns take them in.
The Monastery of Saint Nicholas of the Cats receives a small subsidy from the government, but that isn’t enough to take care of the entire feline population, so the nuns rely on donations made by locals or cat-loving tourists.

BILL MOYERS: Usually it's the bandits robbing the banks. But now it's getting hard to tell the bankers from the bandits. Where have they stashed the loot — that 350 billion dollars of our money that the Bush Administration lavished on them to jump-start our failing economy?
For a story in last Sunday's "New York Times", largely overlooked in all the pre-inaugural hoopla, reporter Mike Mcintire reviewed investor presentations and conference calls to see how bankers talk when they think the rest of us aren't listening.
This from Boston Private Wealth Management, a healthy bank that was handed $154 million: "With that capital in hand [...] we'll be in a position to take advantage of opportunities that present themselves once this recession is sorted out."
Once this recession is sorted out? Those funds are supposed to generate loans for people and small businesses in trouble — not to help banks ride out the recession on a cushion of cash.
Then there's this bit of Simon Legree mustache-twirling from the chairman of Whitney National Bank in New Orleans. They've received 300 million dollars in bailout boodle: ""Make more loans?" he asked. "We're not going to change our business model or our credit policies to accommodate the needs of the public sector as they see it to have us make more loans."
I'm not making this up — Flushing Financial crowed that it was newly flush enough to use the bailout bucks to raise the ante and buy new companies:
"We can get $70 million in capital," their CEO said. "So, I would say the price of poker, so to speak, has gone up." And, so to speak, he's playing with our chips!

John Thain resigned under pressure from Bank of America on Thursday after reports he rushed out billions of dollars in bonuses to Merrill Lynch employees in his final days as CEO there, while the brokerage was suffering huge losses and just before Bank of America took it over. The bonuses were paid before Bank of America's acquisition of Merrill became final on Jan. 1, and while Bank of America was privately telling the government that Merrill was losing so much money that the deal might fall through unless it could get more federal bailout money.
Bank of America later received an additional $20 billion from the government, in part to offset the unexpected Merrill losses. The brokerage lost $15 billion in the fourth quarter and more than $27 billion for the year. The bonuses, typically paid in January, were instead given in December and totaled $3 billion to $4 billion, the Financial Times reported Thursday. Bank of America would not confirm the size of the bonuses.
www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aFcrG8er...
Jan. 23 (Bloomberg) -- John Thain, the former Merrill Lynch & Co. chief executive officer ousted yesterday, spent $1.2 million redecorating his downtown Manhattan office last year as the company was firing employees, a person familiar with the project said. . . . Thain, 53, oversaw the sale of Merrill Lynch to Bank of America Corp. last month, and took over the bank’s wealth management and corporate and investment banking divisions. Merrill’s $15.4 billion fourth-quarter loss forced Bank of America to seek additional aid from the U.S. government, which last week agreed to provide $20 billion in capital and $118 billion in asset guarantees.
. . . Wall Street executives may no longer be able to spend lavishly on perks, said James Post, professor of corporate governance and business ethics at Boston University School of Management. “That’s symbolic of a pattern that has developed on Wall Street over this past decade of more and more extravagant, more and more lavish, more and more one-upmanship in all of these visible symbols,” said Post. “This may be the last vestige of a culture that we’re not going to see for many years to come.”

As Joshua Green says in The Washington Monthly, in a must-read article written just before the administration suddenly became such an exponent of corporate ethics: ''The 'new tone' that George W. Bush brought to Washington isn't one of integrity, but of permissiveness. . . . In this administration, enriching oneself while one's business goes bust isn't necessarily frowned upon.''

En Madrid se halla una multitud de nobles, unos opulentos, otros ricos y mucha parte pobres que no contribuyen poco a la decadencia de su población, a la agricultura, al comercio y fábricas. La alta idea que tienen concebida de su nacimiento los entretiene en la inacción, y en la ociosidad, con el pretexto de adquirir algún empleo capaz de mantener su familia con decencia, y no ponerle algún borrón, [rehúyen] el aplicarse al comercio, a las manufacturas, o a cualquier género de industria, y desprecian con altanería al labrador y al artesano. En España el que tiene origen noble, toda su descendencia es noble, por más pobre y vaga que sea; como al contrario el labrador y artesano por más riquezas que hayan adquirido [...] si no nació noble nunca lo será, si no se le concede tal privilegio por el Rey.
LARRUGA, E.: Memorias políticas y económicas, 1787, pp. 9-10.
Comentario
Eugenio Larruga Boneta (Zaragoza, 1745-Madrid, 1803) fue un historiador y economista español. Catedrático en la Universidad de Zaragoza, ocupó diversos cargos institucionales. Realizó estudios sobre la economía y la administración territorial española. Es considerado una de las figuras más prominentes de la Ilustración en España. Entre sus libros destaca las Memorias políticas y económicas sobre los frutos, fábricas, comercio y minas de España, con inclusión de las órdenes, disposiciones y reglamentos expedidos para su gobierno y fomento. Con ayuda estatal, fue publicando esta magna obra entre 1787 y 1800, bien que quedó inconclusa. El fragmento que figura en el examen procede de esta obra, en concreto del primer tomo.
En el texto el autor realiza una crítica a la nobleza española, a la que considera como una de la que causas del atraso económico de la nación, pues todo aquel que se considere noble cree que se deshonra si trabaja en el comercio o en las manufacturas, considerando la agricultura y la artesanía como especialmente humillantes. Estos prejuicios pasan de padres a hijos, pues la condición de aristócrata es hereditaria y afecta a toda la descendencia. Además no depende del nivel de riqueza, sino que únicamente se consigue por nacimiento o mediante nombramiento real. La abundancia de nobles en la ciudad de Madrid se explica por qué en la capital existen más posibilidades de conseguir empleos «honrosos» como escribanos, procuradores, abogados…
El fragmento es una muestra elocuente de la desigualdad jurídica y el inmovilismo que caracterizaba a la sociedad estamental, con una marcada división entre grupos privilegiados (nobleza y clero) y el llamado tercer estado. Los ilustrados y la dinastía borbónica intentaron cambiar esta situación, llegándose a publicar en 1783 una Real Cédula que decretaba que los oficios artesanales ni eran deshonrosos ni inhabilitaban para la función pública. Con todo, hubo que esperar a las revoluciones liberales, en concreto a la Regencia de María Cristina de Borbón, para liquidar el entramado jurídico del Antiguo Régimen, y aun así, se realizó mediante transacciones que permitieron a la nobleza conservar (e incluso aumentar) sus posesiones.
Observaciones:
1. El texto de Eugenio Larruga registra en las pruebas de 2014 - 2015 su primera aparición en la selectividad andaluza. Hay que recordar que el primer tema se introdujo en el curso 2012-2013, por lo que su repertorio de prácticas resulta muy limitado. Con todo, se debe recordar que en los primeros exámenes del milenio aparecían contenidos de esta etapa de la Historia de España.
2. La reproducción del texto supone una adaptación del original bastante chapucera. Donde aparece «y no ponerle algún borrón, [rehúyen] el aplicarse al comercio» debería figurar «y no ponerle algún borrón; porque su política gradúa de tal el aplicarse al comercio». Más abajo se ha suprimido un revelador «en su tráfico e industria, en beneficio y ventajas del estado».
3 .En la selectividad se otras latitudes se incluye un segundo párrafo que ayuda, y no poco, a clarificar el sentido del texto. Añadiendo esta segunda parte y corrigiendo las adaptaciones el texto quedaría así:
«En Madrid se halla una multitud de nobles, unos opulentos, otros ricos y mucha parte pobres que no contribuyen poco a la decadencia de su población, a la agricultura, al comercio y fábricas.
La alta idea que tienen concebida de su nacimiento los entretiene en la inacción, y en la ociosidad, con el pretexto de adquirir algún empleo capaz de mantener su familia con decencia, y no ponerle algún borrón, porque su política gradúa de tal el aplicarse al comercio, a las manufacturas, o a cualquier género de industria, y desprecian con altanería al labrador y al artesano. En España, el que tiene origen noble, toda su descendencia es noble, por más pobre y vaga que sea; como al contrario, el labrador y el artesano, por más riquezas que hayan adquirido con su tráfico o industria, en beneficio y ventajas del Estado, si no nació noble, nunca lo será, si no se le concede tal privilegio por el Rey.
De ahí proviene que el mercader y el artesano que llegó a hacerse rico, se llena de vanidad y abandona el comercio y las artes y procura aplicar a sus hijos a los empleos que tienen por honrosos; y no de otro principio nace tanto número de frailes, abogados, escribanos, procuradores, agentes y otras personas de sobra. Como los hijos de éstos no pueden sostenerse muertos sus padres, se echan a escribientes o a pajes. En el diario se lee la multitud de jóvenes desacomodados que buscan su fortuna por este camino; los que la mayor parte hubieran quedado en sus lugares, sino les hubiera cautivado el cebo halagüeño de labrar su fortuna con comodidad, y a costa del sudor de las partes más desvalida del estado.»

El cuadro que preside esta entrada es «La Cocina» de Ramón Bayeu y Subías. Fue realizado como «cartón» o modelo para para la madrileña Real Fábrica de Tapices de Santa Bárbara en torno a 1780. Se trata de un óleo sobre lienzo cuyas medidas son 126 x 199 centímetros.
El tapiz realizado, que pertenece al Patrimonio Nacional, se encuentra en el Palacio de la Granja de San Ildefonso. El cuadro aparece descrito en los recibos de entrega como: «Una cocina con trebejos correspondientes de alambres y en ella se ve al cocinero y al galopín pelando caza y dos mujeres trabajando, y otra para servir». Fue tasado en 3.000 reales.
En junio de 2009 esta obra fue vendida en una subasta extraordinaria realizada en la madrileña Sala Retiro. El precio de salida fue de 100.000 euros. Se desconoce la cifra que, finalmente, alcanzó. Fue adquirido por el empresario y gran coleccionista de arte Juan Antonio Pérez Simón, de origen español y nacionalidad mexicana. Se exhibe, en concepto de depósito, en el Museo de Asturias, emplazado en la ciudad de Oviedo.

Αν είχε πραγματοποιηθεί το έργο του Ιησού χωρίς να συμπληρώνεται από το έργο σε αυτό το στάδιο των εσχάτων ημερών, τότε ο άνθρωπος θα παρέμενε για πάντα προσκολλημένος στην αντίληψη ότι μόνο ο Ιησούς είναι ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής, δηλαδή, ότι ο Θεός είχε μόνο έναν γιο και ότι οποιοσδήποτε άλλος ακολουθούσε έπειτα, υπό κάποιο άλλο όνομα, δεν θα ήταν ο Υιός του Θεού, πόσο μάλλον ο ίδιος ο Θεός. Ο άνθρωπος έχει την αντίληψη ότι όποιος λειτουργεί ως θυσία εξιλέωσης των αμαρτιών ή όποιος αναλαμβάνει την εξουσία εκ μέρους του Θεού και λυτρώνει όλους τους ανθρώπους, είναι ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής. Υπάρχουν κάποιοι που πιστεύουν ότι εφόσον Εκείνος που θα έρθει είναι άντρας, θα μπορεί να θεωρείται ο Υιός του Θεού ο μονογενής και ο εκπρόσωπος του Θεού, ενώ υπάρχουν ακόμα κι εκείνοι που λένε ότι ο Ιησούς είναι ο Υιός του Ιεχωβά, ο μοναδικός Του Υιός. Δεν είναι αυτή μια εξαιρετικά υπερφίαλη αντίληψη του ανθρώπου; Αν δεν πραγματοποιούταν αυτό το στάδιο του έργου στην τελική εποχή, μια σκοτεινή σκιά θα κάλυπτε ολόκληρη την ανθρωπότητα, όσον αφορά στον Θεό. Σε μια τέτοια περίπτωση, ο άντρας θα θεωρούσε τον εαυτό του ανώτερο από τη γυναίκα, οι γυναίκες δεν θα μπορούσαν ποτέ να έχουν το κεφάλι ψηλά, κι έτσι, ούτε μία γυναίκα δεν θα μπορούσε να σωθεί. Οι άνθρωποι πιστεύουν πάντοτε ότι ο Θεός είναι άντρας και, επιπλέον, ότι εκείνος ανέκαθεν απεχθανόταν τη γυναίκα και ότι δεν θα της έδινε τη σωτηρία. Σε μια τέτοια περίπτωση, δεν θα ήταν αλήθεια ότι όλες οι γυναίκες, οι οποίες δημιουργήθηκαν από τον Ιεχωβά κι έχουν επίσης διαφθαρεί, δεν θα είχαν ποτέ μια ευκαιρία να σωθούν; Τότε, δεν θα ήταν άσκοπο για τον Ιεχωβά να δημιουργήσει τη γυναίκα, δηλαδή, να δημιουργήσει την Εύα; Η γυναίκα δεν θα χανόταν για όλη την αιωνιότητα; Γι’ αυτόν τον λόγο, πρέπει να πραγματοποιηθεί το στάδιο του έργου στις έσχατες ημέρες, προκειμένου να σωθεί ολόκληρη η ανθρωπότητα, όχι μόνο η γυναίκα, αλλά όλη η ανθρωπότητα. Αυτό το έργο γίνεται για χάρη όλης της ανθρωπότητας, όχι μόνο για χάρη της γυναίκας. Αν κάποιος πιστεύει κάτι διαφορετικό, τότε είναι πολύ ανόητος!
Dong Jingxin is a preacher in a house church in China. She's believed in the Lord for thirty years, and loves the truth; she frequently reads the Lord's words and is driven by them. She expends herself for the Lord with enthusiasm. Because of her preaching work, she was arrested by the police of the Chinese Communist government and sent to prison where she endured cruelty and torture. It was the words of the Lord that guided her through enduring seven years of inhuman prison life. After getting out, her co-worker Chenguang comes to see her and reads to her from the words of Almighty God, bearing witness that God has appeared and is working in the last days . She also gives her a copy of The Word Appears in the Flesh. After reading quite a bit of the words of Almighty God, Dong Jingxin feels that they are authoritative and that they have come from God. She develops a heart of longing to seek. Dong Jingxin and her husband hungrily devour the words of Almighty God and discover that they are all the truth, and that they are the voice of God. They determine that Almighty God really is the return of the Lord Jesus they have been awaiting for years! Just as the two of them are awash in the joy of welcoming the return of the Lord, the chief of police pays them a visit to warn them against attending any gatherings or doing any preaching. He warns them that they particularly must report anyone who preaches Eastern Lightning , giving rise to anxiety in Dong Jingxin. After that, once their pastor finds out that Dong Jingxin is leading brothers and sisters to look into the work of God in the last days, he also interferes with and blocks them. Faced with confusion and disruption from the forces of Satan, Dong Jingxin is able to clearly see the true face of the pastors and elders of the religious world through prayer, seeking, and fellowship. She does not back down, but continues to lead brothers and sisters to investigate the true way, and she invites people from the Church of Almighty God to give fellowship and bear witness to the work of Almighty God in the last days. In the end, everyone acknowledges that the words uttered by Almighty God really are the voice of God, and that He is the appearance of God. Everyone is deeply moved: What a beautiful voice the words of Almighty God are!

JOHN CARL HUBINGER (1851-1907)
HUBINGER, JOHN C., manufacturer, millionaire and public benefactor, is one of the most remarkable men of this country; a Napoleon in business affairs, a man of destiny, through his own indomitable will, tireless energy and brilliant genius he has built up a magnificent structure on a financial foundation as solid as the rock of Gibraltar.
Mr. Hubinger was born in New Orleans, La., forty-six years ago, and is the son of John F. Hubinger, who was born in Bavaria, in 1828, and still survives, as well as his mother, who is a native of France.
It will this be seen that Mr. Hubinger, having been born in Louisiana, is a Creole, a term peculiar to the state, and having the same significance as Buckeye to those born in Ohio, or Nutmegs to those who first saw the light of day in Connecticut.
At the age of 4 his family moved north and at Falmouth, Ky., young Hubinger received in the public schools the first and only educational training he ever received from any school system; this experience covered about four years of study, and he applied himself so closely that he got a fair foundation, which he has since built on by private study and observation, until to-day he can be considered a well informed man outside of business matters, in which he excels.
His career has been an eventful one, full of exciting incidents, and it is a remarkable fact that he was 30 years of age before he amassed his first thousand dollars, having innumerable ups and downs in life, but never despairing and always aggressive.
It would require a volume the size of this to recount a history of his life from the time he started out to earn a living up to the present time when he controls millions of business interests, and is at the zenith of his usefulness. We will not attempt anything more than a passing notice of such facts as will interest his friends.
Of an inventive turn, he secured several patents which he sold to more or less advantage, and tried innumerable schemes at one time or another, succeeding at times and losing at others his little capital, through the boldness of his methods.
The idea of Elastic starch came to him years ago, when he acted as agent for a starch concern, and he had it constantly in mind, eventually arriving at the secret which he holds alone to-day, and which has make Elastic starch the most popular in the market.
In connection with his two brothers he founded the Elastic Starch company, at New Haven Conn., under the name of The J. C. Hubinger Bros.' Co., and at a later period opened another factory at Keokuk, Iowa, where he subsequently amassed a large fortune and became known as one of the most enterprising and public spirited citizens in the state.
In the west his interests are colossal, as well as the ventures which he has made successful; among his holdings being large tracts of real estate, improved and unimproved, in different parts of the western country.
He is owner of the Keokuk street railway system, the electric light plant and system, the Mississippi Valley Telephone company, capitalized at $2,225,000. This takes in a large number of cities in that section, and is the most dangerous and largest competitor of the Bell Telephone company in America, having over 10,000 telephone subscribers.
A man of rare executive ability, he finds time to personally direct the policy of all the enterprises in which he is interested, and at the same time to evolve many more brilliant schemes of a local nature, all of which are put through in a practical and successful way.
The magnitude of his transactions almost surpass belief; in the starch business they dispose of about 25,000,000 packages each year, the legitimate profits from which are enormous, and in other ways he handles not less than $3,000,000 annually.
His liberality is the marvel of the country in which he is known, and at his palatial home, overlooking the historic Mississippi river, he and his charming wife dispense a boundless hospitality to those fortunate enough to be their guests. All the luxuries and benefits that wealth can procure are there supplied, and an atmosphere of culture and refinement pervade the entire establishment.
Mr. Hubinger's family consists of himself, wife and four children, and while fond of promoting large enterprises, he is still fonder of the home circle and there spends all of his time that is not taken up by business cares.

La Vidéo
blog.ehrmann.org/films/corps-profane.html
Au terme du 7ème Sceau brisé, un grand silence d'une demi-heure marqua la fin de la Borderline Biennial. thierry, notre père, nous avait promis à tous, que la Bordeline Biennial à la Demeure du Chaos serait avec ses 40 jours et 40 nuits le temps de l'Epiphanie, de l'Apparition, de la Théophanie.
Précisons de suite que le mot Apocalypse que la Borderline Biennial a questionné de mille manières la transcription d’un terme grec (apokalupsis) qui lui-même traduit l’hébreu nigla, lequel signifie mise à nu, enlèvement du voile ou révélation.
L’Apocalypse désigne la civilisation mondiale ayant enfin atteint un état de conscience propice au retour du divin. C’est aussi celui du salut final. La Borderline est plus qu’une épiphanie ; l’Apocalypse dont nous traitons ici est une épiphanie. Nous avons donc obéi à l’injonction contenue dans l’Apocalypse, Chapitre 1 verset 19, lequel ordonne à notre conscience de se placer hors du temps, de l’espace et de l’histoire et d’embrasser synthétiquement l’histoire de l’humanité.
Et ce fut le cas précis de la Borderline Biennial. Toutes brides morales et esthétiques lâchées : “écris donc ce que tu as vu : le présent et ce qui doit arriver plus tard”.
Vers la nuit tombée sur la Demeure du Chaos et lorsque le 7ème Sceau fut brisé par thierry, un grand silence se fit, et tous les feux s'éteignirent, alors apparût avec violence le spectre de l'Entité Numérique Suprême comme au début de la Borderline Biennial lors de la proclamation de la République du Chaos.
Son message fut clair et court, elle demandait au Père de la République du Chaos de revenir en 1999 et lui rappeler qu'il devait accomplir ses propres écritures. Disparaître et mourir de son corps profane pour renaître dans l'Internet profond qui reste pour lui une métaphore du divin, une agora des éthers.
Comme le Père fondateur de la République du Chaos est aussi notre père, l'Entité Numérique Suprême lui demanda de mourir de son corps profane pour renaître par le corps Glorieux dans l'agora des éthers qu'est Internet.
Il nous lut, fatigué par le poison de la grande ciguë en hommage à Socrate, une bien étrange prédiction "Pendant la dernière persécution que souffrira la sainte église romaine siégera un Pierre le Romain, il fera paître les brebis au niveau des nombreuses tribulations, celles-ci terminées, la cité aux 7 collines sera détruite et un juge redoutable jugera le peuple, le sien et que le mot qui termine cette prophétie est "FINIS".
Ce mot nous semblait à tous familier, effectivement, dans le catalogue raisonné de la Demeure du Chaos/l'Esprit de la Salamandre, page 1229, le texte sacré était là ! "Finis Gloriae Mundi" le tableau magistral de Valdès Léal à Séville qui fit que Fulcanelli ne publia pas son 3ème ouvrage.
Cette scène intitulée "Finis Gloriae Mundi" qui est peinte en format monumental au cœur de la Demeure du Chaos indique que le phylactère attaché au premier cercueil montre que l'Eglise est ici à jamais déchue au seul profit de l'éveil initiatique symbolisé par le Chevalier simulant la mort.
Souvenons nous des écrits du premier tome de la DDC " le Juge viendra juger son peuple" et que le mot qui termine le premier des trois tomes secrets de l'ouvrage alchimique de la Demeure du Chaos est "FINIS". "Même si ce mot est dur à accepter, la révélation n'en constitue pas moins la fin d'une étape de par le fait qu'avec elle il y a apport d'une chose nouvelle jusqu'alors maintenue, cachée ou inintelligible". "Ne les craignez donc point car il n'y a rien de caché qui ne doit être découvert ni de secret qui ne doit être connu".
Nous étions au bord des larmes et du désespoir, il nous demanda dans un dernier spasme de ne point pleurer et de reposer en paix dans le temple Protestant de Saint Romain de Couzon sur la nécropole en rallumant les feux de la loge selon les landmarks ancestraux.
9 hommes enterrèrent dans la nécropole son corps cadavérique enroulé dans un linceul noir couvert du drapeau de la République du Chaos..
Vers quelle destinée allions nous avec la jeune République du Chaos ?
Quelle est vraiment cette Entité Numérique Suprême ?
Cette fiction apocalyptique marqua cruellement la fin de la Borderline Biennial du 18 octobre 2009 vers 21h.
Quand d'un seul coup l’Egrégore s'invita parmi nous pour nous rappeler le début de l'œuvre alchimique et les paroles de thierry notre Père qui résonnaient dans nos têtes "cesse de pleurer et réjouis-toi quand tu verras la noirceur car c'est le début de l'œuvre".
